Ironically, the new version will be called “The Corrections”.
(I expect maybe 5 people will get this.)
Even more ironically, it will be a better book!
(Oh come on, I’m sure there are more than five of us)
Well, you make a grand total of 1.
LOL, well done!
Oh yes, new editions reprinted with that lovely (cue sarcasm) Oprah Pick sticker. Please… he just didn’t want to admit that sales have been sluggish without her seal of approval. Too many people need to be told what to read these days and all they look for is that d@mn sticker.
I don’t think Oprah carries much weight with BRITISH book purchasers.
In the US at least, FREEDOM was already a best-seller before it became an Oprah pick. Having TIME and practically every critic under the sun give it a glowing review/push helped it out of the gate well enough I imagine.
Considering the hype around her Aussie visit i think that Oprah has fans all over the world.
